Sabah says prosecutors are seeking an Interpol "Red Notice" due to Kanter's alleged ties with Turkish cleric Fethullah Gulen, who was blamed by the Turkish government for masterminding a 2016 coup d'etat which failed to overthrow them, an accusation Gulen denies.

Kanter is accused of providing financial support to Gulen's group.

The eight-year veteran took to social media on Wednesday to refute the claims against him.

Turkish Government can NOT present any single piece of evidence of my wrongdoing. 🤷‍♂️
